Default quick tre question

I found a killer deal on some - 285/65R18 bfg A/t's and was wondering if they will work on the Sahara without rubbing? (stock rims)

it will be close, depends on how far you flex the suspension while off road. Hate to wreck those nice sahara fenders. Spring spacers are cheap and it looks better with any amount of lift.

tires were to good to be true... they were beat up.

I'm not a fan of the painted fenders so if they get messed up I can get new non painted ones. lol

285/65/18 comes up as 32.6 x 11.2 on my calc. Not much bigger than the stock 32's in height or width, you'll be fine.
